The NFL Playoffs are down to the final four teams, which means that a handful of former Stanford players have seen their team be sent home.

However, the Cardinal are officially guaranteed to have at least one representative in the Super Bowl. On Sunday, the San Francisco 49ers will be taking on the Detroit Lions in the NFC Championship thanks to a clutch showing by Christian McCaffrey who rushed for two scores in the win. The Lions have a Stanford player as of a couple of days ago, following their signing of free agent Zach Ertz. The Kansas City Chiefs also have Justin Reid who helped push them past the Buffalo Bills this past weekend. He will now be tasked with slowing down Lamar Jackson.

Let's take a look at each of their stat lines from last weekend's divisional round for the former Cardinal that are now playing for a trip to the Super Bowl.
